Re: Pacers get DJ Augustin for one year

Baring injuries, Pacers are the second best team in the east on paper, summer needs to end quickly.

"Missouri's former basketball coach Norm Stewart would traditionally have his players stay in Kansas City, Missouri, before playing at Kansas, going so far as to require the team bus to buy its gasoline at a Missouri filling station and reprimanding players who ate in Kansas, as he did not want to put any money into Kansas' economy."- MIZ-ZOU

Re: Pacers get DJ Augustin for one year

Am I the only one that wishes Hansbrough would of been involved in this deal?

Maybe not wishing, but Hicks expected it back when the conceived deal was a S&T with the Bobcats. Since he became an UFA, it was pointless. But maybe Hansbrough can still be dealt to someone else for an asset? I don't know exactly else we'll need, unless Orlando Johnson truly doesn't pan out, even as a 3rd wing.

I understand he hasn't been impressive but he has had his moments that give some hope that he can be a decent rotation player in the NBA. He is still on his rookie contract too. I am happy the Pacers didn't have to trade him to get DJ. Maybe Tyler doesn't turn out to be much of an NBA player but he is probably a better option than most of the PF free agents the Pacers have a chance at signing. I know Elton Brand is out there but I think he is likely to go to Dallas.
